Hastings and St Leonards Cycling and Athletic Club activities over the holiday weekend included touring, the Sunday run, and racing on road and track.

M Carpenter [Maurice Carpenter] did a very good ride in the Tricycle Association national 50 mile trial to take third place, with a time of 2hr 18min 26 sec. A week earlier he did an exceptionally fast time of 2hrs 15mins 26sec in the Dartmoor RC Open ”50”, held on a Devon course to win the handicap and improve his club tricycle record by more than four minutes.

The cub was also represented in the Dragon RC women’s 100 miles trial, held on the Bath Road; the Medway Wheelers’ 50 miles rial; and events at the Rye Sports on Monday.

Members on the Sunday run to West Sussex covered more than 100 miles having lunch at Shermansbury and tea at Buxted.

A club ”25” last week was won by B Dean [B Deane (Rye Wheelers)] of the Rye Club, in 1hr 7min 36sec. J Hollands [Jum Hollands] was next in 1hr 9min 38sec: and A Huggett was third in 1hr 10min 55sec.

Tomorrow the club tea will be at Chalvington
